@Christian-eq7uh 8 месяцев назад

He clearly did it cuz he’s at micro center and that was prob part of the deal. Also you can get the legion in 1tb anyway

@powerfulshammy 8 месяцев назад

1tb legion will be better cause you don't have to open device and might break something inside also no cons like the vertical mouse where you will get shot 1st in fps or is very inaccurate on a city builder or farming sim

The Legion is the first of the handhelds to make me look up from my Deck, although really they still can't come close to the budget category. But competition is good, so hopefully Lenovo can keep up the momentum. Makes me look forward to the PC handheld scene when the Deck 2 comes out

Best part of the Steamdeck is its linenx based with Steam OS. Not a windows platform.

@kakashi99908 8 месяцев назад

As someone with a desktop I will say I would never actually want to play new AAA on a handled period. The games I would play on one are older games like ~2016 and older that WOULD run at above 60fps. People say the steamdeck does not need a 144hz display because it can't run at 144hz but in my mind anyone playing AAA games at 30fps - 40 fps is the madman. If I want to enjoy a new AAA game I want to crank up those settings on my desktop. My ideal handheld would be a steamdeck with a better screen and maybe a tiny bump in performance.

I like the thinner bezels. I do wish they had been able to put in a bigger battery. The trackpad also looks a bit low and could be straining to use for more than 10 or 20 minutes.

@stroeherj 8 месяцев назад

It's definitely only meant to be used for desktop navigation. After using it for a bit I wouldnt be comfortable using it in game I dont think. You def can, just not targeted towards that.

@paulaldo9413 8 месяцев назад

Yeah, I can play slow-paced strategy games like Pharaoh, Stellaris, etc., comfortably for hours with the Steam Deck touchpads, and I can play them wherever I like. For the Legion Go, I think you need to bust out the vertical mouse to do that.

@mauicez5040 8 месяцев назад

just got done messing around with one at microcenter. that trackpad is easily better than 90% of laptops i've messed with and the screen is phenomenal. overall no bad impressions sadly the game demo they were using was very low on graphical detail and i couldn't get to the desktop environment.

@DoubleJumpPunch 8 месяцев назад

I would rebind Primary Click to Left Trigger like I do with the Deck. Feels way better to make your aiming thumb and clicking finger independent on two different hands. You have much less jitter, more control, and don't have to stretch your hand unnaturally.

@frederikcamilodahl3551 6 месяцев назад

I found out one thing, if you need repairs don't send it to Lenovo. I sent mine into them for a broken joystick button and they have had it for 3 weeks, first they closed the repair ticket before they even got the computer. Then they found it and opened a new ticket, then said they were waiting for parts only the next day to say it was done and on it's way back to me. Then I realized the tracking info they gave me was not for me, was for a 12lb box, and went to the other side of the U.S. from where I live. Now after numerous calls my computer is apparently lost and they have no ide where it is.

I did a lot of cross shopping, and trying to find a decent laptop with a 7840U that's capable of hitting the 30W TDP (and thus roughly matching the Go's performance) of the Legion Go while costing anywhere near $700 is, currently, a very tall order, if not impossible. The Legion Go also comes with 7,500MT/s DDR5 memory, which helps boost its performance relative to its competitors. Can't seem to find a better value proposition on paper other than the Steam Deck, and even that's somewhat debatable.
